Many people, for a number of years, have had their speculations about this infamous underground group otherwise known as the Illuminati.

It is said that they first appeared around the 1700's as a small knit group of the town’s most elite and prestigious members, and over time, somehow developed into the most powerful demonic secret group.

You might be asking, "is there a point to this minor history lesson?" Yes, there is a point, and this is it: nowadays, music videos, television shows, and various songs all indicate to the existence of the Illuminati, and sometimes, certain individuals’ association with this secret group.

One of the artists that most people believe is in association with the Illuminati is Rihanna. Honestly, I don’t necessarily believe in much hocus pocus stories, so I honestly don’t believe that the Illuminati is a mystical demonic group.

Personally, I believe the Illuminati is made up of society’s most powerful, rich, and influential individuals; however, to say that this group is run by satanic or demented individuals is a bit much. If that were the case, then don’t you think this so-called “New World Order” would’ve already happened?

I will admit, there are certain conspiracy stories that I do find to be interesting to dive into (the death of JFK, 9/11, etc), however, there are some conspiracy stories that just either don’t make sense, or are just so far-fetched that it sounds like someone made it up to scare their children.

So, to sum up this Illuminati “conspiracy”, if you will, I do think these people who are investing so much time into researching various music artists and their affiliation with the Illuminati is a bit much and a waste of time; on the other hand,

Who am I to deter someone from believing in something or wanted to dive into a certain endeavor?

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
